Ready, Set, Graduate!
At the end of each year, we bring students and their supporters together to celebrate success, recognize resiliency, and champion the CIS of Eastern PA mission. Our signature event celebrates the graduating seniors that we serve in Lehigh, Northampton and Berks counties. Our seniors don their caps and gowns to celebrate together with site professionals and their families before moving on their next chapter!
